Opener Lendl Simmons struck a century for West Indies A as Leicestershire ended day two 143 adrift at Grace Road.

The 21-year-old from Trinidad hit 13 fours and a six and shared 159 for the second wicket with Runako Morton.

Three wickets then fell for four runs, including Ryan Hinds for a duck, but Dwayne Smith hit two sixes in a cameo 36 as the tourists mustered 349.

The Foxes then negotiated seven deliveries without loss, reaching 1-0 before rain ended proceedings.
